It’s time to
buckle down and concentrate on the two upcoming art shows. This coming
Saturday, August 2, I will be in Goffstown for their Uncommon Art on the Common
show. The following weekend, August 9 and 10 will find me at the Gallery at
Well Sweep in Hillsborough Center for the HAA Open Studio Tour.
Off comes
the writing and editing hat and on comes the artist’s beret. Well, not a beret
maybe because I am not actually doing the art, just preparing what is already
done for the shows. I made post cards to promote the new book “Too Cold for
Alligators” and I printed new brochures yesterday. I’ll do more brochures today
and maybe print new note cards.
I wish I
understood and knew the terms better for different kinds of hats. You all know
that I talk about the hat analogy often regarding all my different “jobs.” I
wish I could name a style of hat and come up with a description including
color, material and accoutrements for each one. Then I could draw little
caricatures of myself wearing these different hats. What fun.
I have today
and tomorrow to work on this as come Thursday, I will be back to the editing
role again. I have to get as much done as I will be without internet on
Saturday and unable to do any newspaper work.
If you’re
out and about on Saturday and get a chance, visit my booth in Goffstown from 9
a.m. - 3 p.m. I will be sharing with Nan McCarthy and we’ll have an array of
cards, prints, charcoal drawings, and acrylic paintings.
